We're back to regular videos next week! But we would love to hear what you thought about these full match videos - should we upload more of them in the future or perhaps even make a second channel with only matches from us?
@TheCeilingFanCollectorHD finnish persons avarage height is somewhere around 5 foot 7 or something like that, so I would say he is pretty massive for a table tennis player
yeah, me too. olah (never heard of him) looks like chewbacca with less hair, but damn his serve and shot game is bad. miika never got used to the serve, no solution there.
When I watched Pongfinity for the first few times I thought these were random guys fooling around having some fun. I wouldn't have guessed they are top players on a national level.
What people might not know is that miikka played incredibly tight games against the ultimate best player in finland. Olah was in the rio olympics, and with miikka having so many years to come, he will copete in very high level. Onnee Miikka👍🏻
@@bigfut4963 yeah he didn't... He was probably holding back and observing Mikka's play for a few points. But guess he soon figured out Mikka couldn't really deal with his spin.
congrats for getting to the final, miikka! i've seen olah play in the french "pro a" this year, he's an absolute beast, winning over 60% of his singles so far!
Finland isn't so good at tt though. Benedek is by far their best player, and he is barely top 70 in the world (their second best is like 250). But hey, it's fun seeing that Miikka and Otto play at the top levels in their nation. They are pro players before being Pongfinity guys :)
That was rough to watch, and I'm sure rough to play. Looks like the opponent was just on top of his game that day. Nevertheless, it's a big achievement to make it to the finals!!! Keep up the great work Mikka! I don't mind seeing full match videos on this channel.
Benedek is a top 100 rated in player on the ittf rankings so although mikka is great, he is only 819 in the ittf rankings so benedek’s victory was inevitable
@@abdullahmoledina429 No, every match is just two players, no matter what the rankings say. However, Miikka's game fell apart midway though the first game and Benedek was not about to let him recover.
gentblue I partially agree with you (Liam pitchford did defeat xu xin despite being of a lower ranking than him) but when there is a gap in terms of ability that is that big, then I think ranking does prove a point
if it wasnt for ittf rules the first 150 places would all go to chinese/japanese/hk/taiwan/german players lol. thats why you regularly see some rank 800 chinese player completely "upset" a rank 30 player. ittf tries to allocate points across countries so it's not even at all. if you go to asia none of them give a shit about ittf's "rankings".
Good effort Miika!!! I just watched Benedek's match against Liam Pitchford from 2019 and WOW. When Benedek is on fire, he's unstoppable. I highly recommend you to watch his match.
Congratulations to Miika for winning the second position and silver medal in Finnish table tennis championship. We are all with you. Keep it up and achieve many more victories. You are the best!!! 🥈🥈🏓🏓👍
@TheCeilingFanCollectorHD doesn't he loose again Benedek Olah in something like quarter or semi final ? (I thought that I've seen that on the finnish website of the competition ...)
Mark M I like your positive attitude towards Miikka even though he didn’t win unlike some people. You’re right, he’ll get used to it and eventually win but only if everyone supports him and keeps going.
I really liked this kinda mini series and I'd like to see make more of these but more like twice a month maximum or something around this and on your main channel I guess it would be better cause even competitive content is part of your content even though I know that most of the people are there for your trickshots (they're incredible) so sad that you hadn't won this one Miikka but you'll win next one for sure anyway I wish you a great future and road to 2M
The name Benedek sounds like the main boss of the ping-pong even he looks like the main evil of the table tennis world. :-) 5:57 'I can do nothing about that' face. :-)
Just watched this again, it's nice to have these videos during a long spell where we can't play. I think it's a great idea to video and post your competitive games rather than just do the fun videos - Table Tennis Daily started doing that recently too by putting up their British League matches and they've been the most popular thing they've ever posted by far. We love to see you get serious and compete.
Great match. you can tell Benedek has amazing reflexes and a killer backhand. That backhand can stuff a lot of smashes and forehand topspins. Well done, both of you!
Miikka is a very good tabletennisplayer, no doubt about that! Benedek is just at another level. Absolutely no chance to win this game, but a few really good balls from Miikka! 💪🏻
Nice job on making it to the finals. You had him in the beginning. I love watching your videos and are a big role model for me when playing table tennis
U could tell miikka was super nervous, good job man you did really good. Even though you were nervous you played amazing . Keep it up and never quit. 👍
Yes, upload more! Very motivating for me, though I'll never even reach half Miikka's level. Benedek is an awesome player! He has tons of power, and much of the time he doesn't even use his body. And his BH is deadly. I'd like to see him against Paul Drinkhall who also has a killer BH.
If Otto would have participated in this tournament I am sure he would have destroyed everybody including this guy playing against Mikka cause nobody can rival the power of sensei Otto
Otto did participate -- he lost in the QFs. 'This guy' Benedek is the top ranked player in Finland by a long way. He's No. 95 in the world now and was once ranked as high as No. 56 in the world! Miikka played well!
I have seen far weirder. If you want to see weird movement heres a tournament that was played at my club 7 years ago th-cam.com/video/I7oz8n9j_qQ/w-d-xo.html
Miikka did not look like his usual self in this match. Not to mention his opponent could high-five me in the USA all the way from Finland. Congrats for making it to the final!
This match was pretty tied, but Benedek proved to be the better The problem with Miika is that he exposes his weak points a lot, thats why he started fine then floped The problem with Benedek is he tries to make the ball so low it constantly strikes to the net But these guys are something else, masters at this sport

Same thing happened in semi final too

HASTAG HUNGARY. Benedek the BEST. HASTAG HUNGARY.
There's something about Benedik that reminds me of Otto. Calm and composed personality, similar stature and that powerful backhand .
it's called big legs and hands.
He is massive and hits and ball very strongy, i think thats it
@TheCeilingFanCollectorHD maybe Miikka is a bit short, on this video he looks really massive from my point of view and I am 6'4+
@TheCeilingFanCollectorHD finnish persons avarage height is somewhere around 5 foot 7 or something like that, so I would say he is pretty massive for a table tennis player
@TheCeilingFanCollectorHD avarage, not all. For example I am 6 foot 1 in 8th grade.
5 minutes in: Miikka down 0-3
Me: Sees that the video is 6 minutes
Also me: "I still believe"
That's why I never look at it, even if they don't put any thumbnail or title, they still spoil it 😂😅
Damn true 😂😂😂
In a community post, they said Miikka got 2nd before these videos
so that why I was a wonder, how can this video has a short duration...
Hahahaha

At the beginning I was like this guy looks beatable and then he just turned on God mode or something
The guy Benedek obviously put huge spins on his shot to make Mikka miss hit a lot...
@@razorelsilverflare7354 im not dumb but he didn't at the beginning
@@bigfut4963 yeah he didn't...
He was probably holding back and observing Mikka's play for a few points. But guess he soon figured out Mikka couldn't really deal with his spin.
Razorel SilverFlare he doesnt hit with exceptionally much spin, he just hits very hard, especially with his bh
Same, I also thought it should not be that hard as semi finals earlier but then he shut all our mouths up with those smashes and spins
Miikka ended those last points with pride by trying to make some pongfinity trickshots. Congrats Miikka for arriving in the final😉🎉👏 5:55
Definitely 😉👍😁
Pride?
Doing some tricky point because he gave up already?

Treasier overconfidence is not good for anybody.
@TheCeilingFanCollectorHD "I cannot be betrayed, I cannot be beaten" 😁. Well, always thought Otto exudes the same overconfidence.
